Abstract:
An electronic device includes a first lead, a second lead, a touch sensitive display panel including a screen area and an extended area that extends from the screen area, and a control circuit. The touch sensitive display panel includes a flexible substrate, a thin film transistor (TFT) layer including a plurality of light-emitting elements, an insulation layer in which a via-hole is formed, and a touch sensor. The first lead is formed on the TFT layer in the screen area and the extended area and connects the control circuit and the plurality of light-emitting elements. The second lead is formed on the insulation layer in the screen area and on the TFT layer in the extended area, and extends from the screen area to the extended area through the via-hole formed in the insulation layer and connects the control circuit and the touch sensor.
Abstract:
An electronic device including a touch module is provided. The electronic device may include an external housing including a transparent plate forming a front surface of the electronic device; a display panel, at least part of which is exposed through the transparent plate; a touch panel adjacent the display panel; a memory; and a processor operably coupled to the memory. The memory may store instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive first data including an input sensed by a first sensor of a first type through the touch panel, and receive second data including an input sensed by a second sensor of a second type through the touch panel. The processor may compare the first data with the second data to generate a comparison result, and determine whether an object detected using at least one of the first or second sensors is a foreign object in direct contact with the transparent plate, based on at least part of the comparison result.
